Maniototo provides residents and visitors alike with all the facilities needed not only to live a fulfilling life here but to also ensure that, no matter what situation arises during your stay, help is never far from hand.  Breakdown services, radio station, doctor, hospital, rest home, plumber, electricians and hairdressers all offer quality service.  With an extensive provision of social services, living in the Maniototo doesn’t mean travelling to the bigger towns to access early childhood education, Plunket, spiritual services, councelling, vicitm support and disability information services.

Whether it’s a lost camera (put a free message over our radio station) or a blown head gasket, it’s all right here.  The Ranfurly Railway Station houses a top quality i-site information center and can help with all facets of your trip, from start to finish.  Enjoy the ‘train carriage’ audio visual display as well as a selection of retail purchase opportunities.
